Ready to go green ?

As a green member of the European

Parliament I'm here to speak about

environmental issues.

First of all, let us try to understand why

the planet needs us

Somewhere in America….

Our seas and rivers are polluted by oil spills, rejections of chemical

and waste water.Indeed, factories

dont' care about it, ashumans who throw their

garbage into seas...

Let's begin with water pollution

Air pollution is really important. Because this pollutionforms the greenhouse gases which keep heating the atmosphereup. The global warming is a major ecological problem

chemists don't care about polluting the

planet

Then, air pollution

Now let's talk about land pollution

Land pollution is the degradation of earth’s land surfaces often caused by human activities. Disposal of urban and industrial wastes, exploitation of minerals, and improper use of soil by inadequate agricultural practices are a few of the contributing

Examples of Land Pollution

Soil PollutionSoil pollution is mainly due to chemicals in herbicides (weed killers) and pesticides (poisons which kill insects and other invertebrate pests). Litter is waste material dumped in public places such as streets, parks, picnic areas, at bus stops and near shops. Deforestation

Deforestation generally increases rates of soil erosion, by increasing the amount of runoff and reducing the protection of the soil from tree litter. This can be an advantage in excessively leached tropical rain forest soils. Forestry operations themselves also increase erosion through the development of roads and the use of mechanized equipment.

An example of a lost species, the dodo.

Wolf was endangered, but now itis protected.

The polar bear is really endangered, cause of global warming, which causes the ice to melt

You surely know that too many wildlife species are

endangered. Luckily enough, humans take care of the

problem and regulate hunting, poaching, fishing,reintroduce

and protect endangered species. But for many of them,

it's already too late...

Endangered species

To my mind, the biggest problem is that some people don't realize.

They think that it's not important, they throw

their rubbish anywhere, overconsume...

However, never forget that insignificant actions seem to be nothing, but if everybody

does it...Imagine that a drop in the

ocean seems to be nothing but thousands of drops make

rivers and even oceans !!!

DON'T DO THIS ANYMORE !!!!!

We are DESTROYING the Planet !!!

Is this TOO LATE?

Will the planet disappear by OUR FAULT???

However it's not too late ! We can react and

change our habits. It's high time we became

environmentally-minded

Let's start with overconsumption.

Many people overconsume, which mean wasting food,

ressources and THAT means pollution. We

can avoid it.

It is that intervenes

the 5R CONCEPT

RECYCLE REFUSE REUSE REDUCEREFORM

Europe promised to take measures concerningthe protection of the environment

Develop new energies...

Penalise polluters...

Stop deforestation...

Once you know that, it’all belongs to you...

What are you waiting for?

ACT !!

Thanks for watching !
